A guide to neuromodulation in drug‐resistant epilepsy

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuromodulation is approved for the treatment of drug‐resistant epilepsy. It has been increasingly utilized over the past two decades with the approval of deep brain stimulation (DBS) and responsive neurostimulation (RNS) in addition to vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)—particularly in patients who are not deemed to be good resective surgical ...

Fast cycle of vagus nerve stimulation is associated with increased sleep‐related breathing disorder in patients with epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This work was undertaken to study the association between vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) parameters and the apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) measured by polysomnography in patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy. Methods Patients with epilepsy who underwent polysomnography with an active VNS device between 2018 and 2023 were retrospectively ...

Application of Iterative Learning Control for Repetitive Processes in Breathing Therapy

Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2018
The continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy is the gold standard to treat the obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome. This continuous pressure splints the upper respiratory tracts and prevents a collapse of the pharynx.

Cost‐effectiveness of a randomized controlled trial comparing low‐dose aspirin to placebo for the prevention of recurrent preterm birth

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 399-407, April 2025.
Abstract To assess the cost‐effectiveness of low‐dose aspirin compared to placebo for the prevention of recurrent preterm birth from a healthcare perspective. This was a cost‐effectiveness analysis alongside a multicenter, randomized, double‐blinded, placebo‐controlled trial.

Efficacy of CPAP Therapy on Liver Steatosis and Insulin Resistance in Fatty Liver Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea: A 4‐Year Follow‐Up Cohort Study

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are comorbid conditions that synergistically increase cardiovascular risk through systemic inflammation and insulin resistance. While continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the standard treatment for OSA, its efficacy in improving hepatic ...

Airway Involvement in Conradi–Hünermann–Happle Syndrome: A Novel Clinical Manifestation

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
We report the first documented case of airway involvement in Conradi–Hünermann–Happle syndrome (CDPX2), an X‐linked dominant form of chondrodysplasia punctata caused by pathogenic variants in EBP. A 2‐month‐old female with genetically confirmed CDPX2 developed severe subglottic stenosis and persistent respiratory distress requiring CPAP; cross ...
